Suz and Ms12, How ya doing to enjoy uni life if you cram ur timetable like that, Its even harder cause you cant absorb as much info as you would otherwise like,I know part time jobs are inportant for some but whats life with fun? Your gonna race from 1 lecture to another, and 1 tutorual to another. Remeber life's a journey not a mission :D food for thought!

Yeah I get what you're saying Snapwizard but I'm pretty happy with it and the amount of breaks I have
Drivin down is quite a bitch so I wanted to get as few days as possible for that fact alone
I think jus cause I'm only there 3 days won't make the experience any different plus in spring session looks like I have 4 days

Agreed 100% with suz.

Thankyou Snapwizard but I don't need your advice on my social life. If you saw my timetable you'd see that there is really no point in me spreading it out over more days because it is a waste of time travelling down the Wollongong for one 2-hour tutorial and then coming back home! I planned my timetable to suit me, not your ideals of what the 'uni experience' is, but if you saw it you'd see that I actually have some ridiculous breaks (one on Tuesday being 4 & 1/2 hours). Monday is the only day I will be rushing from class to class and that is because they are lectures which I have no control over.

Part of the so called uni 'experience' is having the added freedom of NOT having to attend everyday. I love my job and its a big part of my life so I don't think I should have to give that up to spend an hour or so at uni everyday. My idea of fun is NOT travelling up and down the coast everyday. Whilst it might be different for you, my life has many aspects, not just uni, which I am balancing as I see fit.

Mine is everyday :(

Monday: 10:30-12:30
Tuesday: 10:30-5:30 (with one three hour break)
Wednesday: 8:30/9:30-6:30 (with one two hour, and one one hour break)
Thursday: 9:30-3:30 (with one two hour break)
Friday: 9:30-4:30 (with one one hour break).

Yey for 32 hours at uni (including breaks). Though since I don't have a car, there's no point leaving until I'm finished.

Nah, I'm right. I tried to structure my timetable well, but clashes seemed to make me choose this timetable (as there are none for this timetable).

Also, if I came home I'd just go on IRC and not actually do any work. This first week though, my days are much shorter (since there aren't any tutes/lab sessions, just lectures). More time at uni means less time at home goofing around. Which perhaps will allow me to get some work done.

Mine is
Monday: 9:30 to 4:30
Tuesday: 12:30 to 2:30 (but really 10:30 to 2:30 cause I will be going to the gym)
Wednesday: 9:30 to 6:30
Thursday 9:30 to 1:30

This years timetable is way better than my two last year. I had 3 8:30 starts which meant getting up at 6 to catch the train from sutherland
